In line with the vision of Punjab Chief Minister Maryam Nawaz Sharif and on the directions of Deputy Commissioner Kasur Muhammad Asif Raza, the Assistant Commissioner Pattoki visited Badr Colony to review the ongoing desilting operation aimed at improving the area's drainage system.
During the visit, various drains and water channels were inspected to assess the progress of cleaning activities ahead of the monsoon season. The operation is intended to ensure smooth water flow, reduce the risk of urban flooding, and strengthen the city's drainage infrastructure.
Officials were directed to complete the cleaning of drains and sewer channels in a timely and effective manner so that blockages and water accumulation issues can be addressed before the onset of heavy rains.
The Assistant Commissioner also instructed the concerned teams to immediately transport the excavated silt and waste material to designated disposal sites. This measure is intended to prevent obstruction of roads, streets, and public pathways and to minimize inconvenience for residents.
According to the district administration, the desilting campaign is a key component of broader efforts to improve civic infrastructure, enhance stormwater management, and ensure better municipal service delivery across Pattoki.
The administration reaffirmed its commitment to maintaining effective field monitoring and completing pre-monsoon drainage works to provide residents with a cleaner, safer, and more resilient urban environment.
